It's a little difficult to find especially when your not using a map. But once you get there and you see the fabulous view it is breath taking. The local restaurant has great food and the drinks are cheap. It's a nice way to spend a day. It's certainly worth the drive. More

Great place to see the wonderful rocks and the beautiful beaches... Really nice place to head to, no wildlife or caves or the sort, and quite windy, but nice to see the rocks! More

We'd warmly recommend this beach, even if you're not a surfer, and even if you can't actually go for a swim. The views are simply breathtaking and walking along the beach is an amazing feeling. This place has a very special vibe to it. More

Although the sea off the East coast of Barbados is not the best for swimming, Bathsheba beach boasts the most amazing rockpools which are just great fun for kids. More

Part of a structure still perches upon one of the many large mushroom-shaped coral rocks in the shallows of this beach. The ocean has sculpted the sharp coral, yet the beach remains soft and welcoming. A really unique and cool beach to go for a walk. More
